Definitions
- the invention relates to an injector for implanting a (temporarily) folded intraocular lens, with which the folded lens can be inserted into the lens capsule of the eye through an approx. 3 mm cut opening in the eye, according to the preamble of claim 1, a container for storage and Transporting the injector according to the preamble of claim 14 and to a method for folded deployment of the lens using the injector according to the preamble of claim 18.
- a wide variety of devices are known for folding the lenses and inserting the folded lens with the aid of tweezers, and also injectors for inserting the lenses directly into the eyes.
- the essentially unfolded lens is generally folded in an axially progressive manner during advancement in the injector, or an already folded lens is inserted and only pushed out.
- Lens injectors are known from DE 41 10 278 AI, DE 36 10 925 C2, WO 96/15743, EP 0 270 257 AI, EP 0 477 466 AI, WO 97/113 476, WO 97/15253 Part of the prefabricated lenses is inserted into the receiving chamber of an insertion cartridge that can be attached to the front end of the injector.
- This cartridge usually serves as a receiving chamber for storing and transporting the lens.
- the lens is pushed through the tapered channel to the outlet end by means of an axial displacement by means of a plunger, as a result of which the lens is folded or is still refolded.
- These known injectors are of relatively complex construction, made up of many individual parts, and the user has to assemble at least two separate parts before the lens can be pushed out.
- An injector is known from WO 97/13476, in which the lens is previously folded in a folding instrument and then inserted radially into the injector together with the latter. Then the folded lens is removed from the Folding device pushed through the tapered application envelope, whereby the lens undergoes an even further folding. Two instruments are therefore necessary here, one for prefolding and one for injecting the folded lens.
- An injector is known from WO 98/05281, the cartridge holding the lens at its rear end has a radially pivotable flap with a central holding rib, via which the unfolded lens is pressed radially into the transport channel and held there.
- the lens is really folded only when the lens is pushed forward through the tapered transport channel. There is therefore a relatively complex structure with correspondingly complex handling.
- DE 43 03 051 AI shows an injector in which an unfolded lens is inserted via a radial input opening into the transport channel which is open radially upwards in this section, specifically on a lens holding carriage.
- the lens is held against falling out by a lens locking rod, which is pushed axially over the inserted lens.
- the support rod and slide are pushed together through a transport channel of the insertion tube which tapers at least at the beginning, as a result of which the lens, still held in the center by the support rod, is folded around this rod.
- the lens must be held in its position on the slide while being pushed by the locking rod. so as not to be pushed off the sled by the bar.
- the object of the invention is to provide an injector which has the simplest possible structure and allows safe, sterile handling during storage, transport, folding and implantation, as well as a method for the folded deployment of the lenses and a packaging container for the injector.
- the transport channel of the one-piece injector body is an axially continuous opening with a constant cross section.
- the transport channel is thus provided with the same cross-section throughout the entire injector, that is to say from the slide entry end to the lens ejecting end, which simplifies manufacture.
- the contact surface for the unfolded lens is arranged offset radially upward in the direction of insertion to the transport channel. As a result, the lens is introduced above the transport channel or at least substantially at a distance from the bottom of the transport channel, but at the same time it lies below the upper surface of the body.
- the holding rib or rod holding the unfolded lens on the support surface is a radially protruding, plate-shaped folding rib which is arranged in the manner of an embossing tool stamp and can be pressed radially or transversely to the transport direction through the slot-shaped insertion opening far into the transport channel.
- Folding rib and body thus act like Appropriately designed die and patrix on the intermediate lens and bend it in the middle, at the same time pushing it into the transport channel in the fully folded state.
- the lens then only needs to be pushed forward in the fully folded state in the transport channel by the slide, which is of course also a rod of constant cross section here.
- the one-piece injector body can have a rectangular cross-section overall, i.e. Both the thicker insertion and folding part as well as the thinner insertion part and also the transport channel each have a rectangular cross section. All of these parts, namely body sections and transport channel, can also have a round or oval cross section, or the holding part can be rectangular, while the insertion tube and transport channel have a round cross section.
- the cross section of the transport channel must be designed in accordance with the dimensions of the folded lens.
- the channel width must be approximately equal to twice the lens thickness plus folding rib thickness, while the channel height should be designed to be at least equal to half the lens diameter.
- the width of the folding rib in relation to the surfaces surrounding it, such as transport channel walls, is also designed so that the lens haptics are not pinched and damaged during folding and displacement.
- the push rod which is constant in cross section, has a longitudinal groove on its upper side, which engages around the folding rib in a U-shaped manner during the longitudinal displacement with a slight sliding tolerance. It is also advantageous if the front side of the slide is designed to match the shape of the folded lens, that is to say an approximately quarter-cylinder inward curve, as a result of which a uniform sliding pressure is exerted on the lens.
- three positions are provided for the slide, with corresponding positioning precautions, etc. a first position for setting the slide positions in the position retracted behind the radial input opening, a second advanced position in which the folded lens is pushed close to the front discharge opening of the insertion tube and finally a third and last position with up to the outlet opening of the Slider end face reaching insertion tube.
- the first two positions can be realized by means of indexing balls or knobs or the like, while the third position can also be achieved by striking the pressure plate provided on the outer end of the slide which protrudes from the injector body Injector body can be realized.
- the preferably round contact surface for the unfolded lens is separated into two partial areas by the insertion and folding slit, which are horizontal, i.e. is aligned parallel to the bottom of the transport channel and at the same time to the top of the injector body.
- These partial contact surfaces can, however, also be inclined in a roof shape inwards in the direction of the transport channel, preferably at an angle of 30 ° to the horizontal or to the top of the body, or at an inclination which approximately corresponds to the inclination of the lens body.
- narrow narrow support strips are provided just above the support surface, via which the lens is inserted onto the support surface with a slight snap and which also serve as support strips for the stop strips provided on the folding rib or on the corresponding folding lever.
- support strips are provided just above the support surface, via which the lens is inserted onto the support surface with a slight snap and which also serve as support strips for the stop strips provided on the folding rib or on the corresponding folding lever.
- the folding rib which can be pivoted radially through the insertion opening into and out of the transport channel, is provided at the front end of a folding lever which is pivotably articulated on the upper side of the body.
- a correspondingly wide groove can be provided on the upper side of the body holding part, in which the folding lever is completely recessed in the pivoted-in or folded-in state without protruding from the surface.
- a pressure plate provided over the folding rib on the lever, which occupies the entire width of the body, or other precautions must be possible to grip the recessed lever.
- the lever can also be articulated flat on the body via corresponding articulated ears on the body.
- articulated ears of the body can be opened in a known manner upwards through a narrow slot, as a result of which the articulated pins can be pressed into the bearing openings via these slots.
- Such a snap assembly of the hinge can also be provided in the embodiment of the lever embedded in the body.
- corresponding indexing devices are provided on the lever and body, by means of which a lever angle position is fixed when the unfolded lens is held on the surface and when the folded lens is pressed in . This prevents the lever from pivoting upwards in the holding or folding position or from exerting too little pressure further, so that the lens falls out or shifts, so that it is not ensured that it is pushed out correctly.
- a transversely protruding handle plate is attached approximately in the middle to both sides of the body holding part in order to facilitate handling and also to fix the injector in a transport container as described below.
- the injector in approximately the same way as a hypodermic syringe.
- the injector which consists of only three parts, i.e. the injector body, slide and flap, is made entirely of transparent plastic, e.g. by injection molding, etc. so that the 3 injector components are put together or held together by simply pushing one into the other.
- transparent position of the injector allows the respective position of the lens to be tracked exactly. For example, can be observed how the unfolded lens lies, how it is then folded over the folding rib by pushing it into the transport channel and then pushed forward and then pushed out via the slide. Any incorrect positions of the lens can be observed immediately, so that the person handling the injector can adjust to this situation in his further work.
- the injector body can be formed in two parts for manufacturing reasons, with a parting plane parallel to the transport channel. After e.g. The two parts of the body are ready for injection molding and glued together.
- the slide can also be formed in two parts, it being composed of a front, longitudinally displaceable part and a rear, rotatable part.
- the rear part has a thread which is guided in a threaded bore in the holding part in order to ensure a precisely controllable advance of the slide and thus of the lens.
- Known means such as opening and snap bolts -
- the common retraction of the entire slide can be achieved through the adjoining end faces of the slide parts.
- a container for receiving i.e. solved for storing and transporting an injector according to the invention.
- This consists essentially of a sleeve with a lid, in the inside of which lateral holding plates are provided for positioning the injector whose lateral grip plates.
- the holding plates each have a barb pointing in the direction of insertion, which grips around the injector handle plates and holds the injector against the inner wall of the container.
- the transport container or at least its receiving sleeve can likewise be made of transparent plastic in a manner known per se, for example by injection molding or blowing technology be made, which makes it easy to determine whether the injector - and thus the lens - are also in the correct position.
- the transport container with the injector located therein can be filled with a sterile transport liquid known for the storage and delivery of folding lenses.
- the container sleeve is filled with the liquid in a vertical, open position.
- the lid mandrel and / or the inner lid cone displaces liquid, so that no air remains in the closed container, thereby ensuring sterile storage of the injector which maintains the lens elasticity.
- the transport container can - as is generally the case with medicines and medical instruments - in turn be inserted in a packaging box in which an instruction leaflet is also inserted, thereby ensuring additional protection for the transport container and thus the injector and finally the lens itself.
- the object is also achieved by a method for the folded delivery of an intraocular lens by the injector according to the invention.
- the folding lever that hides the radial insertion opening in the injector body is folded back by approximately 180 °, exposing the insertion opening, after which an unfolded lens is inserted or placed in the support surface provided at the upper end of the insertion opening.
- the folding lever is pivoted back again by approximately 180 ° until it lies with the underside of its folding rib on the The top of the lens body stands up, if possible by snapping the lever into this holding position.
- the "loaded" injector is then put into use or inserted into a transport container and fixed and stored for later use by being placed in a packaging box, etc. or made available for transport to other places of use.
- the folding lever on the injector which may have been removed from a container beforehand, e.g. pressed radially up to the stop by pressing on its pressure plate with the folding rib underneath, whereby the folding rib presses the lens underneath from the support surface through the folding slot into the transport channel.
- the lens lies or folds elastically around the folding rib in a longitudinally symmetrical manner and is thus brought into the folded insertion state.
- the slide is then moved from its reset rest position to the second position, which brings the lens into its position near the ejection opening in the transport channel. So the injector is ready for implantation of the folded lens inside it.
- the injector slide is pushed further inwards to the end stop, whereby the lens is pushed out of the injector tip into the lens bag.
- the injector is then returned pulled and either thrown away as a disposable part or kept as a reusable part for refitting with an unfolded lens.

- an insertion opening 18 is provided, which must have at least the dimensions of the lens 20 in length and width and can be round, as can be seen from FIG. 5.
- a support strip is provided on both sides of the insertion opening 18, on which the pressure plate 15 is finally supported in its downward folding movement.
- the strips 19 also serve at the same time to hold the lens in a coarse position, which when inserted over these strips snap into contact with the bearing surface 16.
- FIG. 4 also shows how the lens 20 is placed elastically around the folding rib 11 in the folded state and is held pressed in in the transport channel 7.
- the bearing surface 16, which is interrupted in two parts by the upwardly open slot-shaped transport channel 7 merges into the side walls of the transport channel via large radii 21.
- the two parts of the support surface 16 are inclined to the horizontal by an angle 22 of approximately 30 ° and at the same time in the direction of the transport channel floor, as a result of which the foldable insertion movement of the lens is considerably facilitated.
- the holding part 5 works through its support surface parts and transport channel slot in the manner of a die and the flap with the folding rib in the manner of a patrix of a bending or deep-drawing tool.
- FIGS. 1 to 5 show an injector body, the holding part 5, as in the previous example according to FIGS. 1 to 5, is rectangular, while its insertion tube 6 and the transport channel 7 have a round cross section. Furthermore, the arrangement of the bearing bores 13 and two indexing points, etc., can be seen in this view. a first indexing point 24 for fixing the flap with the folding rib resting on the unfolded lens and a second indexing point 25 for fixing the position of the flap in the fully pressed-in state with the lens folded in, pushed in vertically.
- the front end face of the insertion tube 6 is arranged obliquely with the discharge opening 8, so that a front insertion tip 26 is formed which considerably facilitates insertion of this injector part by the small cut into the inside of the eye.
- indexing points 24 and 25 can also be seen on both sides, although only the arrangement of indexing points on one side can suffice.
- first position knobs 33 for the retracted slide position second position knobs 34 for the advanced lens position

- the transport container 40 consists of a sleeve 39 which is closed by a cover 38.
- a sleeve 39 with a round cross section is provided.
- it can also have a rectangular cross section.
- two plates 34 are arranged which are spaced apart from one another and are spaced apart from one another in such a way that the holding part 5 of the body can be easily inserted between them.
- the holding plates 43 serve as a longitudinal insertion stop for the injector, which is in contact with its handle plates 9 in the insertion direction.
- the holding plates 43 have hooks 44 on their free upper side which point in the direction of insertion and which grip around the upper side of the handle plates 9 and thus hold the injector against the wall of the sleeve 39.
- an axially pointing mandrel 37 is provided on the cover 38, which is in contact with the rear end of the body holding part of the injector, as a result of which the body is clamped between the holding plates 43 and mandrel 37 after the cover has been closed. Incorrect handling and possible dropping of the transport container can also result in the slider being pressed in unintentionally and thus ejecting the unfolded lens from the injector can be avoided.
- a spacer clip (not shown in the drawing) can also be used. This has a length equal to the distance between the rear end face of the holding part and the pressure plate of the slide in the retracted first slide position. It can be a slotted tube that can be easily pushed and pushed across the push rod.
- the outer end face of the slide pressure plate is then supported on the inside of the cover, which is advantageous if this inside is designed with a very soft material such as foam.
